    Takata recall in june 2016 i received a recall notice from ford (16s26) on a takata passenger. As of oct 2017 there has been no solution provided. Last week i got a notice saying that takata is ending all claims on dec 27 when i called takata and ford, neither company could tell me what to do other than to wait for a pending solution. So if the airbag goes off and causes an injury after dec 27th i have no recourse.…
